Mexico City - Mexican authorities say a nine-year-old girl has given birth in western Mexico and they are looking for the purported father, a 17-year-old.
Jalisco state police spokesperson Lino Gonzalez says the baby girl was born last week at a hospital in the city of Guadalajara.
He says the girl and her baby are doing well.
Gonzalez said on Wednesday that the girl's family alerted authorities after she gave birth and the alleged father has not been seen since in the neighbourhood they both live in.
Gonzalez said that if the teenager's paternity is proven, he could face child sex abuse charges.
Gonzalez says the girl told authorities the teenager was her boyfriend. - Sapa-AP
